The Effect of Closed‐Loop Auditory Stimulation on Memory Consolidation and Sleep Physiology in an Ecological Setting

Journal of Sleep Research, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Slow wave sleep plays a crucial role in overnight memory consolidation, with slow oscillations serving as a critical mechanism. Recent studies have identified closed‐loop auditory stimulation as an effective method to enhance slow oscillatory activity during slow wave sleep, thereby facilitating memory consolidation.

Differential Nap‐To‐Nap Stability of Sleep Spindles, Slow Waves, and their Temporal Coupling: An Exploratory Study

Journal of Sleep Research, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Slow waves and sleep spindles characterise non‐rapid eye movement (NREM) sleep and support cognitive and plasticity‐related functions. While their stability across nights is well established, less is known about their consistency across daytime naps.

Eye Movements, Item Modality, and Multimodal Second Language Vocabulary Learning: Processing and Outcomes

Language Learning, EarlyView.
Abstract This study examined second language vocabulary processing and learning in reading only (RO) versus reading while listening (RWL). 119 English learners read or read‐while‐listening to a story embedded with 25 pseudowords, 10 times each, and had their eye movements tracked.

Morphological and biomechanical adaptations of larval mandibles in Trichoptera (Insecta)

Physiological Entomology, EarlyView.
Mandible morphology differs between predators and grazers: predators show pointed incisors, grazers sharp edges and setae. Mechanical properties depend on cuticle tanning, not elemental reinforcement. Functional mandible types reflect feeding strategies, with predators specialized for prey capture and grazers for scraping and collecting.

Efficacy of Der f 2/Zen 1‐LAMP1 Plasmid‐Based Vaccine Immunotherapy in Dogs With Atopic Dermatitis: A Proof‐of‐Concept Study

Veterinary Dermatology, EarlyView.
Background: DNA‐based vaccination rapidly induces strong cellular and humoral immune responses, which may be enhanced by inclusion of lysosomal‐associated membrane protein‐1 (LAMP). Objectives: This proof‐of‐concept study evaluated the efficacy and safety of a Der f 2/Zen 1‐LAMP‐based DNA vaccine immunotherapy in client‐owned dogs with nonseasonal AD ...

Trends in K‐12 science education research on students' interest, motivation and attitude towards science and technology: A systematic, reproductive and comparative review of 12 more years (2013–2024)

Review of Education, Volume 14, Issue 1, April 2026.
Abstract This study presents a systematic, reproductive and comparative review of research on students' interest, motivation and attitude (I/M/A) towards science and technology (S&T) at K‐12 levels, covering the period 2013–2024. As a follow‐up to a previous systematic review (2000–2012), it describes and synthesizes findings from 170 peer‐reviewed ...

Examining the Japanese Version of the Biographical Inventory of Creative Behavior Among Adults and Adolescents Using Item Response Theory

The Journal of Creative Behavior, Volume 60, Issue 1, March 2026.
ABSTRACT Measures of creative behavior have typically been developed for adults (Biographical Inventory of Creative Behavior [BICB]). Such measures are important for examining the mechanisms of creativity and for understanding how creativity education relates to creative behavior.

Potential Impacts of Climate Interventions on Marine Ecosystems

Reviews of Geophysics, Volume 64, Issue 1, March 2026.
Abstract Rising global temperatures pose significant risks to marine ecosystems, biodiversity, and fisheries. Recent comprehensive assessments suggest that large‐scale mitigation efforts to limit warming are falling short, and all feasible future climate projections, including those that represent optimistic emissions reductions, exceed the Paris ...

A Topic Testlet Model for Calibrating Testlet Constructed Responses

Journal of Educational Measurement, Volume 63, Issue 1, Spring 2026.
Abstract Constructed responses (CRs) within testlets are widely used to assess complex skills but can pose calibration challenges due to local item dependence. A few current testlet models incorporate testlet‐specific effects to address local dependence but struggle with interpreting these effects and may not fully capture the complexities of CR items ...

Toward Psychometric Learning Analytics: Augmenting the Urnings Algorithm with Response Times

Journal of Educational Measurement, Volume 63, Issue 1, Spring 2026.
Abstract Adaptive learning systems (ALS) aim to tailor the educational material to match the student's needs, ultimately improving the learning outcomes. An ALS dynamically adjust the level of practice based on the student's ability; therefore, obtaining accurate ability estimates is crucial.
